Cannot see past another insipid display and a late set piece winner for the opposition. Probably a Gooch screamer from the edge of the box Fully expect the team to be: Patterson Seelt Ballard O'Nien Hume Neil Ekwah Ba Jobe Clarke Pritchard
Only going to see people I don’t see very often. Hate watching us under this current clown. Expecting a dull draw.
I'm unfortunately predicting 0-1 and at a guess the team will be very similar to last week, with Pritchard somehow expected to play both right wing and the number 10 role with Jobe. Hemir to start just because he looked half decent, even though Rusyn is the better option but nobody can spot his movement. Patterson Seelt | O'Nein | Ballard | Hume Ekwah Pritchard | Neil | Clarke Jobe Hemir Is it obvious I've lost all optimism about this season?
Always try to be positive but the Hull game was poor. Just bloody dull To be fair Hull didn’t fancy it so didn’t help. Stoke will be well up for it Let’s see what MB can come up with. Going for an uninspiring 1-0 win. Styles to get the winner
Great post as usual RTB, and your team looks good to me. Rusyn ran his socks off against Hull yet received only the one decent pass, it was from O/9 who some say cant play in mid-field. We should have given Rusyn a striker to play off, especially after we went behind, taking the wrong players off seems to be a trait this season and it has to change soon , perhaps this is the game and time to do it , for all our sakes lets hope so . OaU.
There's no reason for optimism at the moment. Team going backwards, crowd turning. We're going to get an absolute thumping very shortly if something doesn't change.
Once again, some changes needed. No point rolling out the same 11 with only Ba or Rusyn swapped round. Pointless. Team has been on its arse and form is abysmal. Change it up and give others a chance. Personally would drop 09. Get Seelt in at centre back. He deserves an opportunity and 09 form not been great. Play Prichard as the 10. Drop Jobe. Play Rusyn through the middle and give him some proper minutes.
No wallowing here. It's just how I see it. There's no evidence of positive change, so we get what we deserve. A defeat wouldn't be something I would actively want, but it would hasten Beale's departure which is the only way I can see forwards based upon his performance.
With that in mind i would go with this team Patterson Seelt O'Nien Ballard Hume/Ba Neil Ekwah Clarke Pritchard Hemir Rusyn I know Hume is not really a wing back but he's not really done much wrong this season.
Canny team that. As an alternative could try Clarke at RWB and Ba at LWB so they can get better quality crosses in and without dithering. Ba's pretty much two footed.
